Our client is a 70 strong integrated marketing agency based in Farringdon. Technology, and everything related to it, is their big passion. Their plan over the next few years is to become known as a category-defining marketing agency for technology brands. They have their own approach and philosophy called Brand to Sales, which is about helping their clients link reputation to commercial sales success quickly. It works. They measure their success in the campaigns they run for global market leaders like SAP, Blackberry and Visa and super-growth companies like BlueJeans, Okta and Pindrop.

In their own industry, they're getting known for being an Agency of the Future and standing out from the sometimes drab world of corporate b2b marketing. People are talking about them, the phone is ringing, new clients are coming on board, they're growing at record pace and, more importantly for you, they're hiring.

They have a unique family feel here where energy, enthusiasm, teamwork and a hunger to succeed are all mixed with a common purpose and a big safety net. The company is a special place to work and they spend lots of time and thought in keeping it that way. Their future is an exciting one and they are looking for a range of talented stars to join them on the adventure.
